Nuclear fission produces quark mass

In summary, nuclear fission can produce quark mass through the process of quark confinement and the emission of force carriers. The number of quark families is determined by the properties of directional invariance and follows an odd power of two pattern. The stable configurations of quarks also follow the Euler formula for polyhedra.

"nuclear" fission produces quark mass

A top quark is roughly 32 times more massive than a bottom quark.
A charm quark is roughly 8 times more massive than a strange quark.
And a down quark is roughly 2 times more massive than an up quark.

In nuclear fission 2 neutrons yield 4 neutrons which become 8 neutrons
then
16 then 32 etc.

So how are quark masses produced?
If an up quark is made from two smaller particles and separating those
particles creates other quarks (quark confinement analogy)successively
heavier quarks will be created if the force holding the two particles
of the up quark together gets stronger with increasing separation.
Suppose that the space between the two particles of the up quark is
occupied by
groups of unstable particles of another kind ( analagous to unstable
atomic nuclei), and one of the particles that constitute the up quark
emits the equivalent of a neutron.An exponential cascade will be set
in motion yielding
more and more force carriers as distance increases.This is why the
force between the two particles of the up quark gets stronger with
increasing distance.
But why are the numbers 4 and 16 missing from the cascade - why are no
quarks produced at the distances corresponding to these
numbers.ANSWER:
quarks are made - and they go by the name of Dark Energy!
There are thus 4 quark families ( a missing lepton too presumably).

My answer to this is the properties of directional invariance. Imagine a cube with its 8 vertices, if one vertex is removed, the cube cease to exist. Each vertex is the intersection of three directions. If each vertex is considered as one directional property then there are eight such property for a cube to exist. These are the eight properties of directional invariance. top-right-front, top-right-back, down-right-front, down-right-back, top-left-front, top-left-back, down-left-front, down-left-back.

The generation of family seems to follow odd power of two's. [itex]2^1, 2^3, 2^5, 2^7[/itex] where [itex] 2^7[/itex] is the 4th family.

If four vertices are removed from the cube then another stable configuration is formed called a tetrahedron. All stable configurations seems to satisfy Euler formula for polyhedra [itex] V - E + F = 2[/itex] where v is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges, F is the number of faces.

What is nuclear fission?

Nuclear fission is a process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy.

What is quark mass?

Quark mass refers to the mass of the elementary particles known as quarks, which are the building blocks of protons and neutrons.

How does nuclear fission produce quark mass?

Nuclear fission does not directly produce quark mass. However, the energy released during nuclear fission can be used to create new particles, including quarks, through particle accelerators.

What are the potential benefits of nuclear fission producing quark mass?

The production of quark mass through nuclear fission could potentially lead to advancements in the field of particle physics, allowing for a better understanding of the fundamental building blocks of matter.

Are there any potential risks associated with nuclear fission producing quark mass?

As with any nuclear reaction, there are potential risks involved with nuclear fission producing quark mass, including the release of harmful radiation and the possibility of nuclear accidents. Proper safety measures and regulations must be in place to mitigate these risks.
